Welcome to the American Boatbuilders Association, Inc., America's leading buying group for independent boat builders. ABA was founded in 1992 by a group of visionary boatbuilders. Our initial objective was to buy engines together to improve our competitive edge. We expanded our efforts to buy raw materials, manufactured products, equipment, and services together to reduce costs and leverage our buying power. We also focus on sharing knowledge and member collaboration to improve our businesses.
